N.E. Side fire ruled arson

Investigators have concluded that a Northeast Side house fire was intentionally set, KSAT-TV is reporting.

The fire started about 3 a.m. Tuesday at a house in the 5100 block of VIllage Green, the station says. A couple who rented the abode were arguing, and the fire started shortly after the woman left the house.

A suspect was detained at the scene after the fire was put out, but police let him go due to a lack of witnesses, KSAT says. He was identified as the woman’s live-in boyfriend.
